Farm Workers

Yesterday we went out Phil's cousins farm and picked bags and bags of juicy sweet oranges and tangelos fresh from the tree. He even had a Ferrari lift tractor machine to get the high ones. Then we walked through the kiwi plant trellis and learned about the male and female plants. We could have has tangerines but as it is we will be floating on citrus in our car from now on.  Today we leave our new Kiwi family and head south.  A bit sad to say goodbye but new adventures await us.

Later tha evening we went to Jude and Peter's home with breath taking views of the mountains, beaches, and Pacific Ocean.  He has three huge cistern that he fills with water which takes care of all his needs. Amazing resilant people.
